UAV and LIDAR surveys were conducted of a 5-acre site to compare elevation measurements. The UAV survey had a vertical RMSE of 7 cm and captured 271 images at 60m altitude. The LIDAR data had a resolution of 1m and vertical RMSE of 8cm after correction. Comparisons showed the UAV and LIDAR elevations varied by less than 10cm at control points and had a 90% correlation at 100 verification points, demonstrating the surveys produced comparable results.
